Car Key Programmer for Mercedes-Benz Infrared Key IMMO X100 PAD3

Meet the XTOOL KC501 Car Key & Chip Programmer — a powerful, forward-looking IMMO and key programming tool designed to handle Mercedes-Benz infrared keys and a broad range of automotive security tasks. Built for professional use and serious DIY enthusiasts, KC501 combines deep IMMO capabilities with flexible compatibility to help you program, read, and write keys, chips, and remotes with confidence.

Key benefits you’ll notice include reliable IMMO operations across Mercedes infrared keys, precise key matching for multiple brands, and the ability to read remote control frequencies and transponder IDs. The KC501 is designed to work in tandem with XTOOL’s most advanced devices and supports Windows PC environments, giving you a versatile, scalable solution for modern car security work. While incredibly feature-rich, it’s important to note that some functions are not universally compatible with all vehicles; always verify compatibility with the VIN and required functions before proceeding.

Why it matters for you:

• Read and write MCU/EEPROM chips to unlock seemingly inaccessible programming tasks.
• Read infrared keys for Mercedes-Benz (A, B, C/CLK, E, G, GL/GLK, M/ML, R, S, SLK/GLC, and more up to 2016 models) and expand to VW/Audi/Skoda MQB and BMW CAS variants.
• Compatible with XTOOL advanced devices (X100 Pad3, Pad3 SE, X100 Max, D8, D9, A80 series, and more) for a unified workflow.

Benefits & Tips

• 2 practical uses: program Mercedes infrared keys to restore access after a lost fob, and perform key matching for VAG (VW/Audi/Skoda) 4th & 5th IMMO generations to streamline workshop workflows.
• Use on a Windows PC/laptop (Windows 7 and above) with KC501 Studio installed to access all features; keep antivirus software disabled during installation to avoid false positives.
• Verify VIN and required functions before attempting programming, as some features are model-specific and not universally compatible.
